Helicopters, Swarovski Gowns, and Size-11 Stilettos: Paris Hilton’s Triple Style Play

Paris Hilton turned the 2022 MTV Movie & TV Awards in Santa Monica into a full-circle fashion moment, arriving by private helicopter before accepting the Best Reality Return award for Paris in Love and Cooking with Paris.

The entrance was pure Paris, but the look itself told the stronger style story: a crystal-covered blue gown, matching pointed pumps, and the high-shine glamour that has long defined her red-carpet image.

The then-41-year-old businesswoman bagged the Best Reality Return for her reality shows, Paris in Love, which documented her wedding journey, and Cooking with Paris, her reality cooking show, which was canceled after one season due to low viewership.

Going up the stage in a sparkling blue gown, Paris collected her Golden Popcorn and said in her speech that she “was so honored” to receive the award.

Paris thanked fans after accepting the Best Reality Return award, reflecting on how a casual cooking video she posted in 2020 eventually led to Netflix’s Cooking with Paris.

She also expressed gratitude for the support surrounding Paris in Love, which documented her wedding journey, and thanked her husband, Carter Reum, family, and loyal fanbase for helping make both projects a success.

Mrs. Reum dazzled from head to toe in a shimmering ice blue gown from the Russian-Arabic brand Sol Angelann by Irena Soprano.

Highlighting her slender figure, the $3,800 evening gown is made of knitted viscose and entirely embellished with Swarovski crystals. It also features a wrap-around V-shaped back, long sleeves, and a draped skirt with a high slit.

Her stylist, Marta Del Rio, created a cohesive look by teaming her maxi dress with matching bright blue pointed pumps.

The Hilton heiress coordinated with a chunky diamond necklace and a pair of Kyle Chan Design emerald drop earrings. She added a quirky element with embellished silver fingerless gloves from Asta Razma.

For her beauty look, hairstylist Eduardo Ponce simply swept her straight blonde locks to the side, while makeup artist Steven Tabimba gave her bronze eye makeup, false eyelashes, and her signature pink lipstick.

Kathy Hilton’s Bejeweled Blazer and Bell-Bottom Red Carpet Look

Paris was joined on the red carpet by her mother, Kathy Hilton, who brought a touch of rock-and-roll glamour in a bejeweled Zadig & Voltaire blazer paired with black bell-bottom trousers.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star completed the look with layered necklaces, hoop earrings, and a silver Valentino Roman Stud bag.

Paris Hilton’s Black Alice + Olivia Suit and Classic Pointed Pumps at the White House

Away from the red carpet, Paris shifted into a more tailored wardrobe for her advocacy work in Washington, DC.

The styling was still polished, but the mood changed completely: instead of crystal embellishment and stage-ready glamour, she wore a structured black Alice + Olivia look that matched the seriousness of her message.

The Paris in Love star meant business in an all-black ensemble from the American fashion label Alice + Olivia.

She donned “Dylan” high-waisted wide-leg pants with a black silk pussy-bow blouse with contrasting trim, finished with a black blazer.

The television personality then styled her look with diamond studs and a statement diamond ring and hid her eyes behind a set of Quay Australia sunglasses.

Creating a streamlined silhouette, Paris slipped her size-11 feet into classic black pointed-toe pumps with towering stiletto heels.

Paris Hilton’s Breezy Blue Alice + Olivia Floral Maxi Dress at the Miami Grand Prix

Just days before her White House visit, Paris embraced a softer off-duty event look at the 2022 Formula One Grand Prix at Miami International Autodrome.

Her Alice + Olivia floral maxi dress kept the blue theme running through the article, but this time the mood was breezy, playful, and spring-ready rather than formal.

The $595 “Rosalyn” dress featured contrasting floral prints, a smocked bodice, a plunging, cleavage-baring neckline, short puff sleeves, and a ruffled, floor-length skirt.

Paris styled her breezy outfit with a metallic silver Chanel bag and a crystal-embellished white phone case, both slung across her body.

She also sported a pair of oversized, white-framed sunglasses and tied her blonde locks in braided pigtails.
